Infection Control and Drugs Trial

It was inevitable really, but Anna is testing positive for Covid now as well. I guess it doesn’t really matter how careful we were it was going to happen when living in the same house. We did try the best we could: Once Morgan and I were infected we were using a different bathroom. Morgan...

Infected

Well, it had to happen at some point I suppose. We’ve been fairly well protected from Coronavirus here in Ceredigion. Case rates have generally been low and I know of very few people who have actually had Covid-19. That was until the last few weeks. Now that restrictions have been lifted and we’re all returning...

Lockdown Exercise

It’s kind of annoying the number of people breaking the lockdown rules this time around. It seems as though hardly anyone is taking any notice of them. This is despite the fact that the Coronavirus situation is the worst it’s been. Infection rates are at the highest they’ve ever been. Hospitals are under more pressure...

Man-Flu Lurgyitis

Well, it had to happen – Man Flu! After months of shielding, isolation and generally being careful, Morgan had to go back to school. Sure enough, within a week he had a bit of a cold so had a day off sick.  For some reason, despite being generally fit and healthy I always seem susceptible...

The Lockdown Continues

We are still in lockdown here in Wales but some aspects of the restrictions have been relaxed today. We can now meet people from other households – as long as it is people from one single household, it is outside and we stick to the 2m social distancing rule. We can now drive locally to...

Back on the Water after Lockdown

At the start of Lockdown, I was still going out paddling as there was no official guidance or regulations not to. I was of course playing it safe and staying well within my capabilities so as to reduce the risk of having to call on the emergency services. But a lonely paddle on the sea...

More Days in Lockdown

Self-Isolation The Coronavirus lockdown continues. Anna has now had a letter for the Welsh Health Authorities to say that she in in a higher risk category and should therefore be ‘properly’ self-isolating for 12 weeks. That means not leaving the house for anything and either making sure the others in her household are also isolating...

Garden Retreat

At least we are still allowed out into our garden during the Coronavirus lockdown. The weather has been pretty good for it too. 9 days without rain and counting means that the floodwaters have receded and I’ve been able to do a bit of tidying up out there. Hedges and taller shrubs have been cut...

Lockdown on the Beach

Little has changed as far as the Coronavirus lockdown is concerned. We’ve been told in no uncertain terms to ‘Stay at Home’. Last weekend no one seemed to be listening as it was busier than a Bank Holiday weekend here, but the message is now getting through it would seem. For us, it isn’t really...

Up the Dyfi

Making the most of my One Excursion per Day With the Coronavirus lock-down in full effect, we are only allowed one excursion outside to exercise each day. I thought I’d make the most of it today. The weather was forecast to be really nice. I’d already done lots of University work from home on Monday...
